I wanted to leave this list several times in the last months, but I didn't
leave because few women  -- cis and trans --  write here and I really want
to make this space a bit more comfortable and secure for them and for more
fragile, more sensitive people and minorities in general.

I absolutely do not care about trolls and offenses, but I know they scare a
lot more sensible and delicate people.  Poisonous censorship made by
trolls:  violent, coward, illogical and exhaustive.  It's killing the CP
list.

As I said few weeks ago, we are losing good informations, technical and
personal opinions of good people, good professionals, because this list is
not healthy, is too aggressive and very, very toxic.

What really annoys me and let me very upset is knowing that some sensitive
persons here never will write anything on this list, never will share their
opinions and ideas, because of this oppressive dictatorship of fear and
aggressive bad words.

We don't have moderation, but there is already brutal censorship.
